Mercedes GTK Conceptby ~iPeg

Digital Art / 3-Dimensional Art / Vehicles / Futuristic

For a change I tried designing a car instead of a weapon. Well it ended up being a car WITH a weapon. Hope you like it

About the vehicle:
This is the Mercedes GTK Concept in Bundeswehr (German Army) ISAF camouflage. It's essentially a 2 seater next generation offroad vehicle filled with technical ideas. To begin with, the GTK has no axes but 4 electric wheel hub motors in every wheel. The wheels are attached by 6-axis KUKA robotarms and steered by FESTO fluidic muscles from -90° to +90°. This allows the vehicle to be extremely offroad capable, fast and agile.

The car has no windows and is designed to be aerodynamic and ballistic impact-reflecting. It also features split gullwingdoors, a electric winch, 360° cameras, slideout weapon storrage, a 40mm GMW and a battery slate system below the bonnet.
